Creating Win-10 Recovery Drive - Instructions not consistent?

[boyblue]

I found several places on the Internet explaining how to create a Recovery Drive on the Internet including Microsoft itself.

I run the program, but right away I have a problem on the first screen -

The instruction say their will be a check box [X] on the first screen that says -

[X] Copy the Recovery Partition from the PC to the Recovery Drive

Also, if there is no Recovery Partition, then the option will be greyed out.

However, when I run the program it says -

[X] Back up System File to the Recover Drive

So, what about the Recovery Partition? Is that the same as the System Files?

Or am I running the wrong program?

Note it also says that if there is no Recovery Partition, the option will be greyed out.

I'm getting to the Create Recovery Drive by typing that into the Search bar. Is there an alternate way of getting to this program?

This is the Microsoft Site I am using as a guide -

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...recovery-drive

However, the screens on this page do not match what I am seeing on my screen -

http://www.howtogeek.com/131907/how-...-in-windows-8/

Is this perhaps a difference between Win-8 and Win-10?

If I follow the instructions in Win-10, am I going to have very thing I need?

The computer is a DELL Inspiron 3650, which I just purchased from Staples.

Any thoughts? Am I worried about nothing?

I make dvds and usb stick using this link. That way I did not mess with the factory recovery.

I created a Recovery USB Drive, but I was concerned about the contradiction in terms.

Though, the USB Recovery Drive was possible, I don't see how to do a Recovery Disk.

Still, I'm good for now.

I guess we can consider this RESOLVED. If I need more help, I can post again at a later time.

So, this is semi-Resolved. I wanted to also create a Recovery Disc, but all searches for a Recovery Disc come up with instructions for a Recovery Drive (which I did create).

Anyone have any additional thoughts on this before I mark it officially resolved?

I think I'm covered, but it would be nice to have both a Drive and a Disk, for now, I'll settle for a disk. Good to know that DELL has some degree of recovery, but it would seem you would need a working computer to get at it.

Thanks for responding.
